Outlines three major aviation disasters, each shaped by a chain of technical issues, human mistakes, and systemic shortcomings.
The first account describes the 1986 Cerritos mid-air collision over Los Angeles, where a passenger jet and a private aircraft collided due to weaknesses in air traffic control procedures and aging radar technology. The event exposed how even small deviations in flight paths can become fatal when monitoring systems and communication protocols fail to keep up.
The second investigation covers the 2003 crash of Air Midwest Flight 5481 in Charlotte. Improper maintenance on the aircraft’s flight controls left the elevator system out of adjustment, making the aircraft difficult to handle. This was made worse by the plane being significantly overweight, the result of outdated passenger weight standards that no longer reflected real averages.
The final section looks at two related Fokker F-28 crashes, Air Ontario Flight 1363 and US Air Flight 405. In both cases, ice contamination on the wings destroyed lift during takeoff. These events revealed serious flaws in de-icing procedures, operator training, and the regulations governing operations in freezing weather.
Together, these investigations show how aviation accidents often stem from a combination of design issues, maintenance lapses, and environmental hazards—leading to major safety reforms that continue to shape modern aviation.
